Seven Samurai (50th Anniversary Uncut Version) (1954) |

|
In 16th Century Japan a poor village is raided every of year by a group bandits until, driven to the brink of starvation, the villagers decide to hire professional warriors to protect them. With only three meagre meals a day to offer as payment, their quest seems an impossible one. A simple plot, flawlessly executed - Seven Samurai combines comedy, pathos, memorable characters, gripping tension and some of the most memorable action scenes ever filmed into an enthralling cinematic experience. Kurosawa's masterpiece testifies to admiration for the classic western, and in 1960 John Sturges returned the compliment by remaking Seven Samurai as The Magnificent Seven.
